Drivetrain
The GAC Aion V uses a Electric producing 150kW and 210Nm of torque, sent through a automatic to a FWD layout. It covers the 0-100km/h sprint in 9 seconds.

The Jeep Wrangler has the clear power advantage at 200kW vs 150kW. In the 0-100 sprint (manufacturer-claimed), the GAC Aion V is 0.3s quicker. For most buyers, the way each car feels day-to-day matters more than outright acceleration.

At 15,000 km a year, electricity for the GAC Aion V costs about $816 a year (17 kWh/100km) and fuel for the Jeep Wrangler about $2,907 a year (10.2 L/100km), at $1.90 a litre and 32c a kWh.

Where each one leads

How to read this page. Prices, specifications, ANCAP ratings, warranty, the CarSorted Score and the verdict come from our records for the grades shown, sourced from the manufacturers' Australian documents, and change when those records change; the date each was last checked is printed under the headline. Prices are recommended retail prices before on-road costs unless marked drive-away. A plug-in hybrid's fuel figure is labelled with its basis: with a full battery (the certified combined figure) or as a hybrid (battery depleted). Charging and running costs are estimates on the stated assumptions. Always confirm price and specification with the manufacturer or dealer before you buy. CarSorted does not accept payment for recommendations.
